Borrowed Lives — Complete Three-Ebook Bundle

Borrowed Lives · The Complete Trilogy

Three novels.
A place to belong. A life to choose.

Ten years after the collapse, a warm home and a place at the table can seem like everything. But in Alder Reach, protection comes with arrangements no one remembers choosing.

Follow Stephanie Caddel through A. R. Shaw’s complete psychological survival suspense trilogy, where missing people, carefully kept records, and the ordinary work of staying alive reveal the uneasy boundary between care and control.

01 · Pretend You’re Here

A missing colleague brings Stephanie to a settlement that has already prepared a household for her—and a child who has been told to call her Guardian.

02 · Pretend You Belong

Across the mountain pass, fourteen people wait behind labor agreements. Stephanie wants to hear from the people whose futures one signature could decide.

03 · Pretend We’re Safe

Winter threatens Alder Reach’s water and supply route. Keeping the community alive must not cost its residents the freedom they have reclaimed.

What would you give for a place to belong—and who gets to decide the price?
